Shalom Retreat Center, 1001 Davis St., Dubuque, IA
7:00 – 9:00pm
Facilitator: Margaret Jungers OSF
Because we grow accustomed to hearing the passion narrative each year, it may lose its impact for us. We might think Mel Gibson’s portrayal of the passion holds the answer to understanding this mystery. How can the passion move us to deeper levels in our spiritual life as we anticipate Good Friday? What is its power for us right here and now? The mystery and significance of Jesus death will unfold for each of us in a personal way as we view and discuss two short videos on this topic by Ron Rolheisser.
Offering: $8. Register/prepay by Friday, Mar. 19.
Admission charged.
